People talk about racism in America, and yes it’s a problem, but having spent time with people from around the world, holy hell. America is probably the least racist country in the world. Absolutely dwarfed by the weird, vitriolic, oddly specific racism basically everywhere else.
Don’t you think that’s because you’re traveling and seeing it through a traveler’s eyes? Also, you’re probably white. A few of my friends have been opening up lately about how bad it is and don’t forget the BLM years. America is fucking racist.
Because people in America think it’s a problem and thus they view it as an issue that needs to be reflected on. Many countries have not gotten to that stage yet and still either think it doesn’t exist or isn’t a problem.

Not really. It’s less through travel and more having conversations with my immigrant friends about the things they experienced in their home country.
And again, yeah racism is still bad here, I’m just saying comparatively.
